The center is set to be re-equipped and expand its scope of activities by 2025. The investment from the state budget amounts to over 1 billion 444 million drams. More than 36 million drams have been allocated for partial renovation construction works, and equipment worth over 1 billion 407 million drams has been acquired. Thanks to the investments made from the state budget, the center has been equipped with the latest digital PET/CT system, high-class sonographic and mammographic equipment, as well as colonoscopic and colposcopic systems, along with uninterrupted power supply devices.
The National Center for Nuclear Medicine is a unique specialized center equipped with a cyclotron produced by the Belgian company IBA. As part of the center's development, relevant equipment has already been acquired through competitive processes aimed at the development of theranostic medicine.
According to the officials, the created infrastructural and technological capabilities are important prerequisites for the further development of diagnostic and therapeutic directions in nuclear medicine, the application of new radiopharmaceuticals, the implementation of theranostic approaches, as well as the formation of relevant professional potential.
